For the rest of the roughly 300 million people in the U.S. (and millions more around the globe), Milton Glaser is probably the most famous designer you've never heard of. The I ♥ NY logo that he designed in 1975 has become part of the popular lexicon, decorating everything from key chains to T-shirts to ashtrays, and inspiring countless knock-offs. One of the most replicated logos in history, Glaser's design represents a kind of cultural shorthand: drycleaners' hangers say We ♥ Our Customers, coffee mugs proclaim I ♥ Allah, and bumper stickers declare Yo ♥ Peru.
